Have you ever looked at a couple and wondered, ‘Whatever did he see in her?’ Surely guys are different than girls. The way they think, their tastes and preferences, the way they judge others around them and the way they get attracted to girls can be beyond comprehension for many of you. This often must have puzzled you as to what exactly do they want! Here’s where we come to your rescue. Mentioned below are the top 10 things that most guys look for in a girl. Read below, you may find some things that will surprise you.

1. Good looks

You might have guessed it! But it is not the only thing that guys look for. Nor is it something that really matters in the long run. However, it is often the first thing that a guy looks for in a girl.

2. Confidence

Confidence is like invisible makeup. The only difference is that it is even better. A girl who is comfortable in her own skin is an instant turn on for any guy. A girl who gets insecure about anything and everything around her, just proves to a guy over and over again that she’s Ms. Wrong for him.

3. Maturity

Maturity is the ability to know what to do and what to say at the right time and place. It comes only through experience. Unless a guy is up for adoption, there is no way that he would get attracted to a girl who just won’t grow up.

4. Independence

In all those movies where they showed you that only the damsel in distress gets the Prince was this huge lie. There cannot be a bigger turn off for a guy than a girl who cannot take her own decisions and depends upon the mercies of others for every tiny little thing. Guys get attracted to a girl who is strong enough to stand up for herself and look after herself.

5. Presentable

You don’t have to be a beauty queen to win the heart of the guy of your dreams. Guys prefer girls who are presentable and can carry themselves well. Guys don’t like girls who wear too much of makeup and overdress. They prefer girls who are confident enough to stay simple and natural.

6. Humor

Laughter is the best medicine. If you have a good sense of humor, people not only get more comfortable around you, but also enjoy your company a lot. This doesn’t mean you act all clumsy and goofy to make your guy laugh. A witty and smart sense of humor is something that attracts guys towards a girl.

7. Positivity

Who would possibly like a wimp who nags and complains about every little thing in her life? Guys like girls who are easy going and can dig for reasons to be happy. Being with such a girl will also make them feel happy and positive.

8. Femininity

Guys like girls who behave like girls. Don’t be a control freak by taking charge of situations all the time. Sometimes, leave the power in his hands as well. It will brush his male ego a little and make him feel like a man.

9. Smile

Guys can go crazy over a girl’s smile. A smile that is genuine, sweet and reaches the eyes can touch a guy’s heart. When a girl smiles, guys perceive the girl to be approachable. Smiling, in fact, is the first sign of confidence. It is the first thing that attracts a guy towards a girl.

10. Modesty

No matter how good looking, guys hate girls who are bitchy and think no end of themselves. Also if you wear too revealing clothes all the time and think that it will attract the guys, you’ll be in for a rude shock. Such a girl will only look like an attention-seeker. A girl who is modest in her thinking, the way she behaves and the way she dresses up wins the respect of a guy.

These are 10 things that guys look for in a girl. They, however, may differ from person to person. For some guys, certain qualities may be very important, while for other the same qualities may not be that important. But however, you have to be as natural and as lovely as you are.
